Rating: - * Convenience pack ... I like that there are two black ink cartridges packed with only one color. Why, because most people, including myself will use more black ink than color ink over a period of time. On average, I will go through two black cartridges, give or take a little, before one color ink is used up. Rating: - * Canon BCI-24 ... Amazon.com has one of the lowest prices for this product. Office depot also sells this product online for $[...], but watch out - if you go to the retail store they have it priced for $[...]. I mentioned this price discrepancy to the checkout clerk who was nice enough to verify the online price on the store computer and honor the $[...] price. The only reason that I am giving this product **** is because the ink tanks, especially the black, get used up pretty quickly. And good luck with the check/clean print nozzle function, because that will drain the ink tanks even faster. But don't substitute - don't use the generic brands. I had been using the Office Depot brand. I was paying less for the generic ink and the print quality was the same as the Canon inks. But then my printhead nozzle started clogging up. A whole series of nozzle clean funtions were unsuccessful - I went through one color ink and two black ink tanks while doing that. Somebody told me to pull out the printhead and let it soak in about 1/2 inch of warm water in a bowl for a few hours. The clog in the printhead did not go away. I called Canon to find out the price of a new printhead and was shocked to find out that the printhead would cost me more than the price I had paid for the printer itself. Somebody else told me that the clog could be because of the crappy Office Depot ink. So I bought the Canon ink package, did the nozzle clean test a couple of times, and, no more clogs! That was a year ago. Have been buying only Canon ink since and keeping away from generics. Print quality is good. Bottomline - Use brand name inks, pay more, but most likely avoid printhead problems; or buy Office Depot/Staples store brand inks, pay less, but possibly end up with a headache. Rating: - * Canon Printer Ink ... I have tried the refill ink and generic brands but nothing produces a perfect document like the real brand. Rating: - * good packaging ... This is the right amount of cartrides I like to keep on hand for when the printer runs out. CJ Rating: - * cartridge deal ... Excellent price for items. Even with high shipping costs, still a good deal. Shipped quickly. |
